Now, London has many popular Premier League clubs. So, it was difficult to guess a name. Also, the matter is under investigation.

Initially, it was known that the player is in his 20’s and the age of Udogie is 22. Also, the market value of the player matches the value of the Italian defender.
The player is yet to speak in public about the incident. However, people now know that Udogie is the man. His club is also keeping silence at this stage as the investigation is on-going.
The Italian joined Tottenham Hotspur in 2022 and is contracted with the North London outfit till 2030.
